Overview

The everyday bulb: classic A60 shape, E27 cap, matt white glass. It gives 800 lm of warm white light at 2700K from 8 W.

Faro recommends it for more of the lights in our range than any other bulb, which makes it the safe default when a fitting comes without one.

Installation and specifications

It fits any E27 lampholder on UK mains. The bulb is 102 mm tall and 60 mm across, the standard size. Switch off, let the old bulb cool, and screw the new one in by hand.
